Founded in 2018 by the ColaJazz Foundation, the ColaJazz Fest is designed to reach and serve diverse communities through accessible pricing made possible by our generous sponsors. ColaJazz believes in the power of JAZZ to unite and strengthen our communities. ColaJazz believes our capital city deserves a world-class jazz fest. Join our funding partners who share this vision!
